Special Diets / Re: GF Flour request
« on: October 01, 2010, 03:17:25 pm »
Hi,
I found out myself and my 2 girls (2.5yrs and 13months old) are gluten intolerant about 6 months ago. I have found it a real challenge changing our diet. Here are a couple of low gluten (not gluten free) ideas to try. we seem to be able to tolerate a small amount of gluten.
Breakie - I have started making my own granola as the comercial ones don't taste nice or are loaded with preservatives (1/3 oats, 1/3 puffed rice, 1/3 cornflakes, chopped almonds and brazil nuts, shreded coconut, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds and seaseme seeds. Melt some butter, coconut oil and honey/maple syrup in a saucepan and pour over, mix. Put in 180 deg oven for 30 mins, stirring ever 10 mins. Cool. Add in chopped dried fruit of choice i.e. sultanas, crasins, apricots, apples, dates). Yum.
My girls also like fruit smoothies for breakie (banana, berries, pear, natural yoghurt, honey/maple syrup, milk).
Lunchs - we like eating Corn mountain bread wraps, frittata's, zucchini slice, soups, rice paper rolls, dinner leftovers.
Good luck!

I tried this and it was so yum, just like normal bread.  However I have a serious conflict with eating soy flour.  Does anyone know of a GF bread that tastes as good as this one but without the soy flour?

Hi Sim,
I'm new to this forum and was searching back through older topics when I came across yours. I have only ever experienced Candida twice in my life (while breastfeeding my two children).  I came across this american site which perscribes a good probiotic with digestive enzymes, ph balancer etc. I highly recommed the products as it has worked twice for me and I didn't even have to give up the sugar!! Although I may have had quicker results if I did.  I takes a month or two to work but slowly it does work.
